Minor League Prospect - Emmanuel Garcia

The New York Mets have a real prospect at second base in their minor league system. Like some of their other recent prospects, this guy has some serious speed (think Carlos Gomez.) Emmanuel Garcia batted only .256 for St. Lucie in the Florida State League. However, he swiped 34 bases in 488 at-bats. And if and when he does make it to the bigs, and Rickey Henderson is still coaching, look out. Those 34 stolen bases could easily turn into 64 stolen bases in a season.

Here's a look at Garcia's 1st card, a 2006 Bowman Chrome. This card may not be fetching much right now (you can pick it up for about $1 before shipping on eBay,) it may skyrocket when Garcia gets his chance in the bigs.
